does this go for EB Games too?
think I'll go start camping…..
Since they're owned by the same company I'm positive that it would.I'll be heading out to my local Gamestop early friday morning to nab one of the pre-orders. 😀
umm….i sort of have a class from 9-11am…woe is me…i guess i'll be trecking over to my local EB after that…
James from Tyler here, just to let you know, got my papers to work for GS again for my 7th holiday season, and just thought you might wanna know we are going to have between 15-30 Wii's so, no biggie on not being able to get a system Wii-served (LOL)!!!!
I'll be going to work late so I can get to the store at opening and get myself a Wii.
I'll be hitting mine up as soon as I go in for my holiday part-time help interview. I can't go any earlier, so hoping they still have some.
15 to 30? Hmm.. a bit less than I thought.I wonder – how early is everyone getting there? 7am? 9am? Opening time?
I really wouldn't worry too much about getting yours pre-ordered. Unless you live in a town that's getting considerably less than the norm (a small town), each store should have more than enough.
I SEE THROUGH YOUR VEIL OF LIES, YOU TRICKSTER! 🙂
Just got my email from ebgames confirming this. I have a flexible work schedule (anywhere from 6am-6pm, as long as I get 8 hours in everyday) so i'll be getting here at 6am tomorrow, put in two hours and get to my local ebgames by 8:30 hopefully in time to get a good spot in line, and be back at work by 11.
James from Tyler, We have 3 gamestops in town, not to mention 3 Walmarts, Target,Toys R Us, Best Buy and a Circuit City, with the same additions in Longview as well, so there Wii'LL be plenty of Wii's in East Texas for sure. Most of the people i talked to said they wold be there as early as 7am, due to the mall not opening up until then but may go to the other GS's as early as 5am.
James from Tyler, oh I forgot to mention we won't be taking Reservations until 10am, when we open.
If you're in NYC, you can just go to the Nintendo World Store and preorder at any time. They'll let you pay from $50 to the full price to reserve your system. This is how launches should be done. I've got a job, I can't wait around in a line all night!
